Story

The earth has been peaceful for a century now.
Suddenly, a UFO appeared out of nowhere on the coast of the famous city - Neo Naoned - !

And even more extraordinary, you are actually the owner of the UFO ?!
With the help of your summoned kaijus, your only purpose is to destroy every living on sight !

Gameplay

• Your goal is to destroy every building in the city.
• You lose if your UFO is destroyed.

ALIEN

To achieve your goal, your UFO can summons 3 kind of Kaiju : Small, Medium and Large.

Each of them cost a certain amount of energy.

• Small Kaiju : Cost 1 energy. Attack building & ground units at close range.
• Medium Kaiju : Cost 2 energy. Attack building, ground & air units at long range.
• Large Kaiju : Cost 3 energy. Attack building ONLY at close range.

As you are progressing in the game, destroyed buildings will drop energy Orbs.
Collecting them will replenish your energy and you will be able to summon more Kaijus !

If you are running out of energy and all of your kaijus are dead, your UFO can still shoot a beam.
UFO's beam does only damage buildings & ground units.

HUMAN

On the human side, Armies will be part of the party.
You will see 3 kind of units :

• Tank : Ground Unit. Attack Kaijus only.
• Artillery : Ground Unit. Attack Kaijus and UFO.
• Helicopter : Air Unit. Attack UFO and LARGE Kaiju Only.

As you are progressing in the game, they will try to reinforce more and more their defense and try to destroy your UFO !
